This intimate restaurant takes a highly seasonal, thoroughly market-driven approach to products and ingredients, with dishes evolving and appearing as their ingredients ripen and age. One evening’s dishes may center around just-to-market spring vegetables, while menus mere days later might be built around an unexpectedly robust haul from local seas. Shmoné offers a tabula rasa for our chefs to follow their hearts and indulge their inspirations, while interacting directly with guests in a tandem performance. This is the impetus behind Shmoné, an intimate, ever-evolving culinary experience powered by the dynamismthat Eyal Shani has become known for. Shmoné’s dishes reflect a blend of influences from his Jerusalem upbringing and culinary journey. In 2023, Shmoné earned a Michelin star and retained the star in 2024.
